READIN started out as a place for me to keep track of what I am reading, and to learn (slowly, slowly) how to design a web site.

There has been some mission drift here and there, but in general that's still what it is. Some of the main things I write about here are reading books, listening to (and playing) music, and watching the movies. Also I write about the work I do with my hands and with my head; and of course about bringing up Sylvia.

The site is a bit of a work in progress. New features will come on-line now and then; and you will occasionally get error messages in place of the blog, for the forseeable future. Cut me some slack, I'm just doing it for fun! And if you see an error message you think I should know about, please drop me a line. READIN source code is PHP and CSS, and available on request, in case you want to see how it works.

See my reading list for what I'm interested in this year.

🦋 Tin-can Cello: next steps

The cello's neck is for the most part (excluding the very bottom, next to where it will meet the bucket) sanded smooth to 80 grit. The dowel is straight. Today I am looking to do the rough fit to the bucket; assuming (fingers crossed!) this works, I'll be refining the fit over the weekend, and then:

Finish sanding the neck and scroll, to 320 grit.
Color the neck and scroll.
Finish the neck, scroll, and dowel.
Glue up the fingerboard and nut.
...Setup time!

I've started marking up the bucket.

...et voici! Rough cut:
